Zorbah

[✓]

A story about a boy with clouds in his fists and a girl with lightning in her veins.

'You know what this reminds me of?'

Zorbah had not expected her to make conversation but he perked up, attention rapt on her. 'Hmm?'

'The balcony scene in Romeo and Juliet.'

He stilled, a heartbeat dropping in his ears. Him, looking down at her and her, staring up at him. An unexpected grin broke on his face then and words spilled from his lips:

'But soft! What light through yonder window breaks? It is the east and Juliet is the sun. Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon.'
